The receipt cleaner is being built right now.
Check back very soon — it'll be worth the wait.
Most PDF merge tools just stitch your photos together as-is. Tidy Receipts actually cleans them up first.
Automatically finds the receipt in your photo, corrects the angle it was photographed at, and crops out the background — whether that's a desk, a wallet, or a café table.
Faded thermal receipts (the kind you get from supermarkets and coffee shops) often photograph as grey-on-grey. Tidy Receipts boosts the contrast so every line is readable.
Toggle on OCR to automatically extract dates, totals, and vendor names into a CSV alongside your PDF. Useful for expense reports, HMRC Self Assessment, and VAT reclaims.
All processing runs in your browser using WebAssembly. Your receipt photos are never uploaded to any server. Not ours, not anyone's. Sensitive financial documents stay on your device.
Bundle receipts for expense claims and quarterly tax returns. Attach one clean PDF instead of a folder of blurry phone photos.
Most expense systems (Concur, Expensify, SAP) want a single PDF per claim. Tidy Receipts gets you there in under a minute.
Keep clean digital records of business expenses for HMRC, your accountant, or VAT reclaims — without paying for a full scanning app.
End a trip with a stack of receipts from different countries? Photograph them all and get one tidy PDF before you even land.
Yes, completely free. No sign-up, no credit card, no premium tier. The tool runs in your browser and costs nothing to use.
Your receipt photos never leave your device. All processing — edge detection, image cleanup, OCR, and PDF creation — happens entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. We have no server that receives your files, so there is nothing to store, share, or breach.
JPEG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC (iPhone photos) are all supported. You can also upload existing PDF files and mix them with photos in the same batch.
There is no hard limit. In practice, batches of 5–20 receipts work smoothly. Very large batches (50+) may be slow on older devices, but all processing still happens locally.
HMRC accepts digital records, including PDFs of receipts, for Self Assessment purposes. You are not required to keep paper originals if you have a clear, legible digital copy. See HMRC's guidance on keeping records for full details.
OCR (Optical Character Recognition) reads the text in your receipt photos and extracts key fields — date, total amount, and vendor name — into a CSV spreadsheet alongside your PDF. If you just need a clean PDF to attach to an expense report, you don't need OCR. If you want a spreadsheet of totals for bookkeeping or tax purposes, turn it on.
Yes. Tidy Receipts works in mobile browsers on iPhone and Android. You can photograph receipts directly and process them without installing an app. Processing time on mobile is typically 2–5 seconds per receipt.
Edge detection works best when the receipt contrasts clearly with the background. If your receipt is white and your surface is also white, the auto-crop may not find the edges — in that case the tool falls back to full-frame with contrast enhancement only. A manual crop option is coming soon.
